small changes to them to form an animation. Animators are artists that specialize in the creation of animation. There are a few different creation methods in animation, Traditional animation, Stop-motion animation, Computer animation, 2D animation, 3D animation. Traditional animation (Cel Animation) - The individual frames of a traditional animation are the photographs that have been taken from drawings, drawn on paper at first. To make an animation each drawing is different from the one…
3D Printing and the Additive Manufacturing Process Additive manufacturing (AM) is a process where an object is created by adding layer-upon-layer of material. This basic process requires the use of a computer, CAD software, the material(s) and the appropriate machine to fabricate the end result. AM has been used in many applications. At first, it was used in Rapid Prototyping (RP). Today, AM is used to create end-products used in many different applications, from aerospace, automotive and…
Predictive analytics can be used which allows businesses to extract big data and analyze it to better understand customers. This analysis is a game changer for businesses because it allows them to make predictive models that will help them serve their customers better. This business strategy is important as it provides the data they need to make predictions for the future and it gives them the ability to modify when results are affected. In order to take this strategy into consideration, firms…
1.0 QUESTION 1 Differentiate between database management system and information retrieval system by focusing on their functionalities. DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INFORMATION RETRIEVAL SYSTEM DEFINITION A software system that enables the computer to do the database functions such as storing, retrieving, adding, deleting, and modifying data A built-in user interface that carry the activity of obtaining information resource from a collection of information stored EXAMPLE Microsoft Access, MySQL,…
Answer: In this modern day, databases are based heavily on relational models in which tables are the fundamental building blocks. We may ask the question as to where ER comes in database design, its importance and the need for ER modelling in modern databases. In an attempt to answer these questions, we get to understand that ER is a high-level description of the proposed database, useful for understanding the requirements gathered from a client, in our case The Reproduction Antiques Company. It…
What is a relational database? It is a database that stores the information about both data, for example for a person detail that is link with their car details that they have bought it from the company. The data and relationships are showed in an entity which is in a flat, two dimensional tables. We would use a relational database in a company such as a car company so when they want to store their customers information and what car did they buy, they use a relational database which stores the…
According to (Connolly, 2003) the database is “A shared collection of logically related data, and a description of this data, designed to meet the information needs of an organization”. The Database Management System (DBMS) is software that enables users to define, create, maintain and control access to the database. The database has identified three levels of abstraction. All these three levels will have different aspects and they are as follows: • Physical or external level- The database…
The Relational Database Framework The collection of information provides access to the network of the data-processing system. The representation consists vital information of real-time events. The objective requires managing personal cognizant comportment for integrating vital information. The standard utilizer and application (APP) program interface to a relational database is the Structured Query Language (SQL) (Codd, 2003-2016). The APP retrieves and supplies the information from the graph…
The two main types of 3D printing are FDM and SLA. FDM stands for Fused Deposition Modeling, in FDM a thermoplastic resin, usually in the form of a wire (Figure 7), is fed through a hot extruder in turn heating the plastic allowing it to become formable. As the plastic is heated it is precisely placed by the…
man-made structures and landscaping practices. For this reason, it is important to continually monitor the geological hazards that exist along the coast. One relatively new way to monitor landscape changes over time is by the use of three-dimensional (3D) mapping. Long-term changes can be seen by…
